As many as 10 singles matches and two doubles contests were set to be played on Tuesday but spells of rain led to a number of false starts before the organisers were forced to cancel the day's play after 1700 local time (1600GMT).

Britain's former world number one Andy Murray is scheduled to make his comeback on Wednesday, five months after what he has described as "life-changing" hip resurfacing surgery following his first round exit at the Australian Open.

The 32-year-old Scot will partner Spain's Feliciano Lopez in the doubles competition.
